Currently we input the code manually. It would be nice to be able to scan the bar code using an image (or camera on mobile device).

One workaround i've found on iOS is:

  • Tap Code input field twice
  • Tap the Scan icon (only available on newer iphones)
  • Point camera at code number under the barcode if it exists
  • Tap insert when code is correctly displayed in the field

Downside of this method: it preserves spaces which coupon-store doesn't currently support/handle (#18 )

This is definitely a feature that would make the app easier to use. Your iOS workaround should work fine in the latest release.

Camera support would be great. Also uploading an image (scan or photo) would probably be useful as well.

Libraries to check out for reading barcodes:
